Biography
Thomas Vinterberg is a filmmaker originally from Copenhagen. He began his studies at the Danish Film Academy – National Film School in Denmark, and achieved success in the international music scene with the 1998 film Festen (The Celebration).
Festen is also the first film produced by the Dogma 95 film movement, co-created by Vintenberg himself. After this first feature, Vintenberg went on to direct several critically acclaimed films such as Submarino (from 2010), on the theme of lack of empathy and its consequences, which was highly praised by critics, and Jagten (The Hunt -The Suspect, from 2012), on the theme of marginalization experienced by a male kindergarten teacher who is falsely accused of sexual abuse.
